Abstract

A trigger switch used in electric devices such as various types of electric tools may be provided that drives a drive unit, such as a drive motor of the electric device, by pushing a trigger. A trigger switch includes a mode switching lever that switches between a constant speed mode in which the drive unit is driven at constant speed and a shift mode in which the drive unit is driven by an output corresponding to a pushing amount of a trigger. Further, the mode switching lever includes a regulating portion that regulates the pushing amount of the trigger according to the switched mode.
